Updates not being installed

I had to reinstall .Net framework 1.1 this ianstalled easily, now I keep getting an update icon for .Net framework update Service Pack 1 but it will fail to install. I know that Microsoft has stopped updatingwindows XP to a certain date ,but can anyone help me.An error msg comes upOx643

Hi,Whats happening is the .Net 1.1 security service update patch is still on your pc you will need to remove it before the .Net framework 1.1 will install correctly. You will then have to install the patch after that.Here is some instructions. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/899619Half way down is the guide, under title Resolutions. Hope this helps?Read through a couple of times before you try anything.

I tried what u suggested went into add/remove ,I do not have any KB's matching those hotfixesKB99-/or KB22- . I will keep on trying because this is tied into my not being able to enter my easystub site(I can then I cannot-then I can)

I tried restore at the very first, when I go to my auto updates I have so many failed attempts it is not funny .I uninstalled Framework1.1, then reinstalled it from microsoft download site immediately I received an update icon for Framework 1.1 service Pack 1 this again failed to install. I went to a site called Manageengine.com/Patch managment guess what now my PC is really shot I cannot remove that download at all!!!! Thank you anyway. It looks like I will have to pay to have my PC wiped clean.

I finally got my updates to install,I had to totally remove all my HKEY files,and then reinstall using .NET4 /3.5 SP1/1.1SP1/ finally it installed 1.1 now almost all my problems are fixed. Thank you for your help
